| Personal History | Lissa's mother, Runa, was an Orion traitor who came to Starfleet with intelligence that helped them bring down a small slave trafficking organization that was short cutting through Federation Space. She sought asylum with the Federation, which was granted. Her mother ended up marrying one of the tactical officers who worked on the mission, Lissa's father Jonathan. Jonathan continued his career in Starfleet, eventually becoming a captain for many years, and Runa stayed with him, sometimes acting as a civilian advisor, more often working as a high school political science teacher. As a child growing up on Starships, teachers often described her as outgoing, and took note that she was often the one to make sure that new students knew where everything was and made a point to introduce them to the other children and helped them to make friends. When Lissa joined Starfleet, she initially went to the Academy, and then followed up with a nursing program, and served as a nurse for three years on the USS Arcadia. During that time, she was assigned to work on a mission that involved a genetically engineered virus, targeted to a specific group of people. it was part of a larger scheme planet wide. After that mission, Lissa decided if she could take her medical background and apply it to the Starfleet Intelligence Division. Starfleet Intelligence was happy to accept her transfer, and she received her training in the field. She was often given intel to work with that had anything related to biological science, though her portfolio grew from there, as she showed proficiency in combat skills, and was a clear asset in field missions under even the toughest conditions. She's been extremely interested in the technology used by the Romulans to reclaim Borg into unique individuals again, and is one of a handful of security officers with clearance to read the entirety of what Starfleet has been able to gather from activities on the Artifact. |
